All the best to you during your last semester.Househacking is one of the most common routes for new investors in NY.For best returns, I'd recommend focusing on South and Southeast Queens, Central and Southeast Brooklyn, and the Bronx.There are parts of the suburbs (Westchester and Long Island) that have househack opportunities but the property taxes are higher and the commute time to NYC is longer.Abel

The best advice I have for someone doing their first flip is to start small and build up to larger renovation budgets (even an experienced contractor).

@David Weitzel great deal, and welcome to the forumns, I love the idea of doing a flip on my own street, seems easier to keep things under wraps but perhaps you still had contractor issues it sounds like?

I am a real estate investor and currently own 14 units in Rhode Island (I grew up in Providence).
